Yo.
I'm in Canada still. It's kind of boring now. I've totally run out of energy to meet new people/go out drinking/travel to any new places, so I'm kind of stuck at this one hostel, time killing my days away and getting wasted or playing smash in the evening. Lazzee. In an attempt to be positive, here are some of the fun things I've done since I've been here:
+ Met people from all over the world, mostly Australia and Canada though.
+ Made a ton of friends.
+ Got really really stoned a few times and now I really understand what it's like and how to enjoy it.
+ Danced like a crazy person hundreds of times.
+ Put on electro music in a pub, went outside and danced by myself for the whole song, got videod then two girls asked for my number.
+ Gained an understanding of the global economy and read a lot about the history of the C20th economy.
+ Realised that getting with people for a one off is actually unfulfilling, found that I would rather wait for someone good.
+ Learnt what it means to travel alone or with someone new who you met 5 minutes ago.
+ Got a free slurpee on free slurpee day from 7/11
+ Won a Smash Bros Melee tournament
+ Came 2nd in a big Melee doubles tournament
+ Got played by some retard guy
+ Climbed 3000 steps up some mountain
+ Saw the Rocky Mountains
+ Walked on a glacier the size of Greater Vancouver
+ Saw a bald eagle, a peregrine falcon, black bears and a grizzly bear.
+ Saw water bluer than the sky
+ Watched Wimbledon by myself a lot lol.
+ Missed my friends more than I can explain
+ Spontaneously burst into tears because I got overwhelmed with pride (lol).
+ Was honest with myself and the people I met (mostly)
Yeah well whatever, I'm kind of just bored and writing shit. I have a REAL journal that has some kind of interesting shit in. But mostly my thoughts come out as pretentious emo whining so I can't even stand to read it back. I'll probably read this, throw up, eat my sick, then delete this post.
